“The Corrupt Political Hacks in New York, Judge and AG, are asking me to put up massive amounts of money before I am allowed to appeal the ridiculous decision,” Trump raged in one since-deleted Truth Social post. "Never done before. No jury, no victim, full disclaimer clause, happy banks. ELECTION INTERFERENCE! WITCH HUNT!”

“I shouldn’t have to put up any money, being forced by the Corrupt Judge and AG, until the end of the appeal,” he wrote in another deleted post. “That’s the way system works!”
